We have been letting Cairo self-feed for quite some time now. And we hate every minute of it. Well, it's not that we are not encouraging independence and development of fine motor skills, it's just that there's so much more work involved in NOT haviong to feed her.

After all her meals, we'd have to scour every nook and corner of the high chair and the surrounding 3 miles (ok, exaggerated :p) for runaway pieces. Yeah, since I'm on diet, I'm starving the ants in our household too.

I mean, 20% of the food will inevitably end up anywhere but in her stomach! I can feed a starving nation with the food Cairo drops everyday! *frustration*

One day, I just couldn't bear it anymore and rushed out to buy this bib during my lunch break. I have heard of moms who could bring up a dozen and a half kids w/o spending on all these frivolities. I am not one of them.

Hence I must work harder & PPP more to compensate my maternal short-coming :p

Oh, what do we do with the food caught in the bib's scupper trench? Multiple choice question time:

A) Drop em right back into Cairo's bowlB) We eat them upC) We throw them away at the end of the meal, stillD) All of the above, depending on our mood that day :p

Cairo's Foreword

I share a blog with Mommy cos I'm too busy to create another website(growing up is a daily affair and it requires all my time and attention!). So, if you see "Cairo Says: ..." on the title of a post, it's written by me :D I'm sorta like her blog's "Feature Writer"! Click here for Mommy's take on my appointment though :p
